“The DCDC Strategic Trends Programme provides a comprehensive analysis of the future strategic context out to 2040. The work is based on research
conducted at DCDC in conjunction with subject matter experts across a range of disciplines. These experts come from a multitude of backgrounds, including
government and academia. It is a global view of future trends and DCDC has conducted workshops and consultations in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa and North America to gain an international perspective.”-Major General Paul Newton, CBE (Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire)
“By 2040, the US is likely to lose her hegemonic status as rising powers enjoy more rapid economic growth and close the technology gap in military capability. The US share of global GDP has already decreased from around 50% in 1950 to 22% in 2007, and although it remains 3 times the size of her nearest national competitor,54 this shrinkage will continue, resulting in a diminution of US economic power…….The US will remain a politically stable major power; however, her response to the decline of her hegemony will be a critical factor for global stability…..”–DCDC Global Strategic Trends Programme-4th Edition Global Strategic Trends out to 2040
Here’s why the Obama regime is shifting U.S. military focus to East Asia: “The Asian Meridian is likely to be an economically successful region that sits at the
intersection of the Chinese and Indian spheres of influence and is likely to be a region of geostrategic competition. It is the region from Hong Kong in the North, through South East Asia into Australia……..The region sits astride the global trade routes of the Malacca and Lombok Straits through which 20% of global oil production is transported, including 80% of China’s oil imports. Over 60% of global shipping travelling through these choke-points is destined for Chinese ports. 93 Similarly, Japan imports over 80% of her energy needs along these routes.”
Here’s why governments like climate change: “In the Arctic, technological advances and the acute effect of climate change will facilitate economic exploitation…….Shipping routes, such as the North West Passage and Northern Sea Route, are likely to be open for longer periods and there may, in the summer months, be viable routes across the deep water of the Arctic Ocean, despite extreme weather conditions. The Arctic is likely to become a significant global source of fossil fuels and strategic minerals, with most deposits likely to be found in Russian territory. The division of the Arctic Ocean by the surrounding states, particularly Russia and Canada will give these states significant advantages……”
The Third World War will continue to expand, from under the oceans to outer space: “This compression will shape the character of military activity, demanding increased discrimination and judgement about how to deal with situations holistically; both from military forces and from the political leaders who employ them. Economic, financial, legal and diplomatic conflict are all likely, challenging legal norms, and requiring coordinated and integrated responses in order to protect from and respond to attacks. Orbital space and cyberspace will be part of the battlespace in the same manner as the air, land and maritime environments, but activity will also expand underground, into the deep ocean and other extreme environments……….adversaries range from potent state military forces through to disorganised and poorly equipped groups, and even individuals……Political violence will often be indistinguishable from criminal violence………Future Operational Environment (FOE)…..densely populated urban and littoral regions….will carry an increased risk of collateral damage and unpredictable second-order effects….proliferation of space-based assets….”
The latest DCDC globalist analysis has these warnings: “…sudden collapse of a pivotal state would threaten regional and global stability.”
“The development of a treatment that could prevent or cure the effects of ageing would have a significant impact on global society.”
“…loss of status and income in undiversified economies could lead to state-failure and provide opportunities for extremist groups to rise in influence.”
“A failure of the global communications system could occur for a variety of reasons……”
“….a highly lethal pandemic, a geological or meteorological event of unprecedented scale, such as the eruption of a super-volcano, or the discovery of non-terrestrial intelligent life.”

More British empire take over BS!
Don’t blame China, blame those who control FDI!
